THEREMIN
ETHER MUSIC AND ESPIONAGE
ALBERT GLINSKY
A creative genius and prolific inventor, Leo Theremin launched the field of electronic music virtually single-handedly in 1920 with the musical instrument that bears his name. In the first full biography on him, Theremin's life of espionage and invention emerges as a drama of hidden loyalties, mixed motivations, and an irrepressible creative spirit. 62 photos. 13 line drawings.
